Christi’s Baby Shower

My fiancé (who’s also my photographic assistant) asked me about the importance of baby showers. I was trying to convey to him how special these events are; how they commemorate the arrival of a baby, the sense of happy anticipation, the bonding between women & their unique shared experience.

All of these sentiments were in abundance at Christi’s baby shower last weekend. The event was held at Abuelo’s and was coordinated by Christi’s friend (and event planner) Tricia Brock. All the proofs are available here, but below are some highlights.

Check out these lovely details:

One of my favorite parts of shooting events are the departures. It’s so nice to see people’s unrestrained emotions as they say goodbye and offer their well wishes.

Thanks again for inviting me to photograph such a special event. Congratulations to Christi and her family!

Christi’s Baby Shower: Preview

Today I had the honor of meeting event planner Tricia Brock, and I took some shots for her friend Christi’s baby shower! Baby showers are such special events, and I was so glad to have gotten a chance to meet mom-to-be Christi and her friends & family.

I plan to have the shots finished by the end of this month, but here’s a preview. I absolutely love this shot of Christi and her mom!

Simple & Striking

I got my new business cards today, courtesy of the excellent service of One Hour Business Cards. Great work!

How crazy am I…

…about photography? I picked out these shoes precisely because I thought they’d photograph *perfectly* for my engagement shoot! Have I scheduled an engagement shoot yet? Do I have an outfit to match? Have I booked a photographer yet? No! But I’ve got shoes. Priorities, right?

The Baby is Growing…

Well, little baby Julia turned one year old last month! She is SO cute! She’s turning out to be an inquisitive little girl. I was so happy to visit her & her mom a while back. It turns out, Julia likes the camera and wants to crawl towards it!
